French security forces continued a manhunt for the two gunmen suspected of shooting dead 12 people at an attack on the satirical newspaper, Charlie Hebdo.
The men, identified as French citizens of Muslim faith and brothers, Said Kouachi and Cherif Kouachi were reportedly spotted in northern France on Thursday morning, where witnesses say they were masked and armed. The gunmen reportedly robbed a petrol station stealing food and petrol.
In the south of Paris, in an apparently unconnected incident, a police woman was shot dead. The officer was attending to the car accident when a gunman started firing shots. A street cleaner was also wounded in the attack.
In apparent revenge attacks against the Charlie Hebdo shooting, two mosques in France were firebombed over night. No injuries have been reported.
